Synopsis episode 1
Dynasty begins with heiress Fallon Carrington unhappy to find her billionaire father Blake engaged to Cristal, her rival employee at the family company. Fallon plots against Cristal with Blake’s chauffeur—and Fallon’s lover—Michael Culhane, and then with Blake’s nemesis, Jeff Colby. Meanwhile, the arrival of Cristal’s nephew Sam threatens to expose her past.
The reboot updates several factors from the 1980s original, including moving the setting from Denver, Colorado to Atlanta, Georgia; making Steven’s homosexuality a nonissue to Blake; and changing gold digger Sammy Jo from a woman to a gay man.
Good to Know:
Netflix acquired the rights of Dynasty from CBS Studios for international distribution. Thus, in Belgium, each episode will be available 24 hours after its broadcast on American television.
